Was wondering if my "orphan" Philco model 37-630 chassis with shadowmeter ( that was lost from its orig cabinet, spkr & escutcheon many yrs ago), would fit into a Philco model 37-610 tombstone cabinet? Also, would a shadowmeter escutcheon fit & replace the orig 37-610 escutcheon? I figure since my chances are very slim on ever finding a 37-630 cabinet, perhaps I could fit this chassis into another Philco cabinet for the time being? There is a complete 37-610 for sale on Ebay now that looks like everything (shafts-dial) may line up for a retrofit, and has a orig spkr as well. Trying to put together my wifes family heirloom radio-chassis into something "presentable" even though not all original. I will keep searching for the proper cabinet also. Just wondered if it would fit? Anybody know? Thanks, Randal
